The Milky Way is very interesting, here are some facts. More than half of the stars are 4.5 billion years old, and the most common star is the Red Dwarf. There is a black hole inside the Milky way that is measured at 2.6 million suns. It moves at a velocity of 552 Kilometers per second (which is 342 miles per second). Astronomers believe that The Milky Way and The Andromeda Galaxy will collide in about 5 billion years.
